ZH Lift Assist

The ZH lift assist was designed to assist employs in lifting an 8 Cylinder block from pallet to conveyor line. This design also went through many phases. We wanted it to be ergonomically correct for anyone who uses it, no matter what their size or gender.The block itself weighs about 100 lbs, so we made the lift assist very light weight. After lifting the block, it then has to be rotated, to sit back down onto the pallet. We ensured that this was a seamless, fluid motion to make it easiest for the operator. This was a very fun and exciting project for Precision Engineering!
